I learned to drive in an AP6 Valiant ute with 3 on the column in the late 1960s.
First car - 1958 FC Holden (a paddock-basher).
First DECENT car - 1956 Vauxhall Velox, bought 1977 because I got sick of riding my
motorcycle to work for wet early-morning (5.30am) starts in winter.
Since then I've owned several Holdens, EK (2), EJ (2), HD, HR (2), HT, and a number
of Fords, XM, XT, XA, XB and 3 Fairlanes (2 x ZB and 1 x ZG 351).
And another Velox, this time a 1952.
There have also been a few 'odd ones' such as a 1936 Chevy, 1960 Hillman s/w, 1960
Humber Super Snipe (VERY nice!) and probably a few more that I've forgotten...
For much of that time, I also continued to ride motorcycles.
Here's the XA and a couple of the Fairies...
